摘要
William Irwin Thompson,Harold Morowitz,and Baird Callicott argue that ecology represents nature to be internally related,systemically integrated,and unified. Resonant concepts of nature may repose in Asian traditions of thought. Tu Wei-Ming,Graham Parkes, David Hall,Roger Ames, and Robert Neville explore the complementary environmental attitudes and values in the Chinese world view; Hubertus Tellenbach and Bin Kimura, David Shaner,and William LaFleur,the Japanese world view; Francis Cook,David Inada, and David Kalupahana, the Buddhist world view; Eliot Deutsch and Gerald Larson,the Indian world view. These traditions provide a rich conceptual resource for contemporary environmental philosophy.
